Lets see those 40g breeder tanks

It looks pretty cool

 

I got about 35 pounds right now. I plan on adding another 20-25 pounds or so. thats whats nice about the breeders is that there not so tall so u dont need to stack a bunch of rock for it to look full.

 

The big footprint makes for some great aquascaping possibilities.

I think I might use some Aqua-Mags to make the back wall come alive.

 

here is the only pic I have left of the 40B i just tore down. not such a great pic, but here it is anyway.

 

That's what I like about the breeder. It's short, but wide. I may have to consider the aqua mags later on. it's a cool idea

 

nice jbb 00. Is is because your background is black, that your tank isn't that bight?

 

the black does make it a bit dark, but also there was only 1 150w mh on the tank at that time (not near the spread needed) I would go with a good 6 bulb T5 step if you have the funds. makes the tank look 1,000% better. The new background color i have started to use is a deep royal blue - not LFS blue - i hate the really bright blue like that. The blue I have is a custom mix from home depot, it is really deep blue. makes the tank look deeper too.
